No Free Passes - Keith's Special Comment

Keith Olbermann with another special comment, the target, the president, and his failure to act. Chris Wallace is a monkey posing as a newscaster, and the iraq war is not a check on terror but fertilizer for it.

I’m so glad that you posted this, Norm. Keith Olbermann has truly emerged as the most eloquent, inspiringly passionate voices of reason and dignity that our mainstream media has to offer. He’s just getting better and better!

Ah, i see someone else knows of his holiness of the noodly appendages?
And to answer your question, as far as I know, no they no longer teach 1984. In fact, im not sure they teach much of anything anymore...
As far as the brains of the country...Im in immigration law and i was just discussing that point today. We get over 50,000 immigrants from countries like India, China and Russia to supply us with scientists and engineers because our country is simply not producing any. And on top of that we have to import half the countries nurses from Thailand because we dont have enough of those either...something about not teaching science in school may have something to do with it.
Who knows, maybe this explains why Bush is president. When you get a country where the people dont know their own constitution, can't write or read properly, and still think the earth is 10,000 years old...well then to such a people a man like Bush seems like a pretty brilliant guy! Sorry, Im a bit sarcastic today.

He is eloquent, intelligent, and correct. But his rants are so dense and long that they're not going to change anyone's mind. He's preaching to the choir.

Speaking of God, I'm beginning to think God put man on Earth so that man could figure out a foolproof way of dismantling neoconservative thinking and prove that a freemarket economy eventually destroys the planet -- that wealth comes not from human labor but clever engineering and cheap, hydrocarbon based energy. Once we've eradicated these evils, all things will be in harmony.

We have the tools to build utopia sitting right in front of us... and we don't.

I'm with Olbermann here but I'm a bit unsure of Bush's active role in trying to blame his predecessor. Is Bush on record having somehow expressed that the failures of Clinton led to 911? I ask because honestly I don't think he is smart enough to reach that sort of conclusion no matter how far fetched it is. However, it reeks of the Turdblossom and his ilk.

Olbermann gets better and better. The left needs to be reinfused with ANGER, instead of lamely shuffling around. Clinton in the "interview" finally had some of that Southern wupp ass back, and this girl was most glad to see it. Where O'Reilly flicks spittle's of paranoia, Olbermann intones a quiet fury that many share.

Good stuff. Too long, though. It's a good, but very brief point that the scandals were at least partly the fault of the GOP. The more important point is that Clinton wasn't distracted at all and had a good anti-terrorism effort going, while Republicans were dreaming up ways to subvert it.

It doesn't matter if Olbermann is preaching to the choir. Not everything in the political media is about straight-ahead persuasion. Is it harder or easier for other media people to criticize Bush with Olbermann out there? I think easier. Sure it gets tedious, but he is making real arguments.

This is the biggest left wing bullshit I have ever heard.Olbermann does nothing but make accusations and insult. There is no fact in anything he says. Clinton did nothing after he was given Bin Laden on a silver plater. KO only wants to make a name for himself, not give the news.Clinton has been badmouthing Bush even before 911.Clinton let the Twin Towers be bombed the first time then did nothing when the USS Cole was bombed.His own champain manager Dick Morris said Clinton wanted nothing to do with foreign affairs.Bush has done nothing but protect this country and the left wing media has lost it.Fact
